Tang Xi: “…” Didn’t you hate being in the stupid entertainment news?” Why had he suddenly changed and now even say something like “If people like gossiping about us, so be it”? She remembers that Qiao Liang would require such media to delete this kind of news before.

Why did he suddenly become so tolerable? This was strange!

Qiao Liang didn’t answer Tang Xi’s question but stared at the TV screen. Suddenly he frowned and said coldly, “That man is a real eyesore.”

Tang Xi couldn’t see his expression, but she immediately figured out that he was complaining about Xiao Yao. Tang Xi sighed helplessly as she said, “There is nothing you can do about it. Can you hack the websites, photoshop those photos and then put them back?”

Her assistant who was driving dared not to make any sounds and pretended she didn’t hear anything…

Tang Xi asked her assistant to pull over by the road, then asked her to get out of the car and said that she would drive to the airport herself. Her assistant was a bit worried about her. She looked at her. “President, let me send you to the airport.”

Tang Xi who was speaking to Qiao Liang via earphones took a look at the assistant who was standing outside of the car, and raised her eyebrows as she said, “Keep an eye on the people in the company when I’m not around. Don’t let them bother my grandfather, understand?”

Her assistant looked at Tang Xi in puzzle. Why would they bother Mr.Tang?

Tang Xi didn’t bother to explain to her, closed the car window and drove away.

Her assistant gazed at the car that was speeding away, she blinked and sighed. Why did she feel such great pressure as soon as President came back?

Tang Xi had no idea how great her pressure was on her assistant. She arranged with Qiao Liang a place to meet and drove there. When she got out of the car, she saw Qiao Liang leaning against his car smiling at her. She had taken the skin mask off, and become Xiao Rou again. She walked up to him and hugged his waist. “Is our Mr.President going to become Mr.Hot Search?”

Qiao Liang enjoyed Tang Xi’s hug. He put his arm around her waist and asked gently, “Why do you ask this?”

Tang Xi smiled. “You make me recall the enterprise presidents in the soap operas who are always jealous, and then…” As she said, her eyes sparkled with a sly gleam. “Will you become like that? I kind of expect that.”

“Expect that I’m jealous?” Qiao Liang looked down at Tang Xi. “What do you want to do?”

Tang Xi widened her eyes, and chuckled. “Nothing. I just think you must be cute when you’re jealous.” She dared not tell him that she was actually previously planning on flirting with two handsome men and making him jealous… However, thinking that Qiao Liang might cut those men into pieces, she thought she’d better not try that…

Tang Xi didn’t want to really make Qiao Liang jealous, so she changed the topic. “How am I going to check in at the airport? I said I was going to Paris. They must already have their men waiting at the airport to wait and watch for me checking in.”

Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi, and then turned to look at a SUV parking not far away. At this time, the car door opened and a pair of high heels appeared in Tang Xi’s eyes. Then a beautiful woman came out of the car; she looked exactly like Tang Xi. Tang Xi blinked and stared blankly at the other her, and that her waved at her, “Hello, I’ll stay in France for a few days in your place.”

Tang Xi turned to Qiao Liang who nodded at that woman. And that latter took Tang Xi’s car key and got into the car, and the car sped away. Tang Xi stared in shock at the car that soon disappeared from her eyes and didn’t know what to say. It had been quite a while before she took Qiao Liang’s hand and exclaimed, “God, when did you prepare this for me?”

She suddenly had a feeling that she couldn’t do without Qiao Liang this life! She always missed out some important parts when she was trying to do something, but Qiao Liang would have everything prepared for her in advance… She didn’t know how to appreciate him!

Qiao Liang smiled, rubbed at her hair and said in a low voice, “I’ve prepared another woman to disguise as you when you decided to come to the capital. Since Tang Xi has come back, she can’t just disappear out of the blue. Only when you live in front of their eyes, people won’t suspect you. By the way, let me take you to see two people.”

Qiao Liang said, pulled the car door open and signaled for her to get in. Tang Xi got into the car and looked at him. “Who are we going to see?”

“You’ll know when we get there.” Qiao Liang asked Little Six to drive. Tang Xi widened her eyes when she saw Little Six, asking, “By the way, when did Little Six become our company’s second largest shareholder?”

Qiao Liang paused and then he rubbed at her hair, explaining gently, “After you had the air crash, I had my men purchase the Empire Group’s shares in secret. I thought you must not want to see your grandpa’s company being snatched by those greedy people, so I bought some shares and I…”

Tang Xi looked at Qiao Liang. “Yes?”

“I began to buy the Empire Group’s shares five years ago. I had planned to give them to your grandpa as the betrothal present when I proposed to you.” Qiao Liang’s voice was a bit hoarse when he said this. Apparently, he was regretting breaking up with her before. He paused and continued, “Fortunately, it’s not too late.”

Hearing his words, Tang Xi pursed her lips. She looked up at Qiao Liang and asked in a low voice, “It must have been hard for you back then, right?”

Betrayed by his father, having to abandon his beloved woman, and suffering the pain from the knowledge that his mother was paralyzed and he was going to die, he must be in agony. She wondered how he went through and survived the disasters that came one after the other!

Qiao Liang smiled and recalled how he slept less than two hours a day, how he worked like crazy to numb himself, and how he told himself that he would never let his father off even though he was going to die. He smiled and shook his head. “No, not that hard.”

Now his company had become one of the best companies in China and a rising star in the world. His mother was recovering and she had come back to him. All those calamities that he had gone through was worth it! However…

Qiao Liang took her hand and sighed deeply. He then kissed her hand and said gently, “I just regret my stupidity, I was really too stupid. If only I could keep you by my side back then.”

“Yes, you fool, why were you so stupid?” Tang Xi looked at him sadly, but soon she smiled, saying, “But it’s not that bad. Or I would never know how much you love me.”
